After their recent, raucous performance at Webster Hall, we saw a very different sort of Deer Tick-related performance this past Wednesday night at Glasslands. Ian O’Neil, who has been Deer Tick’s guitarist since 2009, and previously played with Titus Andronicus, gave a relaxed, intimate performance of old standards as well as numbers from Deer Tick’s divisive new album, Divine Providence and new solo numbers (presumably) of his own. Sticking primarily to a more country-folk sound, O’Neil lead off with the Grateful Dead number “I’ve Been All Around This World,” followed by Michael Hurley’s “Be Kind To Me.” He was joined onstage by members of headliners Virgin Forest (that recording coming soon) for the last few songs, including a rousing version of Chuck Berry’s “Maybelline”.

I recorded this set with AKG 414 large-diaphragm microphones in our usual spot in the video plus a nice clean soundboard feed from Josh, the house engineer at Glasslands. The sound quality is excellent. Enjoy!
